Quiet and cozy

It was the perfect cabin for our return to Ellijay. Cabin is secluded so you won’t see neighbors, giant bed is cozy and perfect for after a long day of hiking up mountains. Was also perfect for our dogs.

Quaint retreat

My wife and I, and our little puppy stayed here to celebrate my 47th birthday. Loved, loved, loved it. Close enough to town, but far enough away for peace and quiet. Everything was excellent.

The cabin was cozy and secluded. The cabin was also well furnished. The cabin is centrally located to the areas that we wanted to visit (20-30 minutes travel time). Visitors should note that GPS will not give accurate directions to the cabin. Enjoyed our stay.

Cozy little getaway

Our stay at Gunsmoke was terrific: Clean, cozy, well-appointed. really comfy King-sized bed! Great location: not far from town, but well-away from the hustle-bustle. Smart TVs are a plus: watched plenty of football. Had a clear evening when we enjoyed some star-gazing. Looking forward to a return trip - highly recommend!

Nice cabin getaway

The cabin was nice the hot tub was a good addition. Communication with the owners was good. There was a storm just before we came that knocked out the power and she kept in touch with us to let us know what was going on with it. The town is nice. It was a lovely stay.

Great little cabin!

This is the cutest house! They have decorated the inside and the outside, and it looks amazing! It is so peaceful and quiet there. We had a very relaxing time. The only negative I could say,which the owners don’t really have any control over, is the drive up to the house is really rough. We would definitely stay there again.

My Mountain Escape

I was coming to Georgia for a family wedding and decided I wanted to stay in a cabin in the woods and the Gunsmoke Cabin was exactly what I was looking for. It is exactly as pictured and was a wonderful retreat. It was peaceful and calming, and so very cozy. Thank you again Jill.

We enjoyed our stay at the Gunsmoke cabin! We brought along our two dogs so the fenced in back yard was a game changer. The cabin was clean and everything was fully stocked with anything we would need. Neighbors are pretty far and the property is surrounded by lots of trees, so very private. Host is very friendly and responds super fast! Lots of outside motion lighting, which is great because it gets super dark out there. It is on a dirt road but it’s not too rough for the average car and it’s nice there is a functioning gate at the front of the community. I would recommend this place to anyone and if we ever return to Ellijay, we will be back!
